    More Interesting Facts About Historical Figures

    Like Volume One of this series, Volume provides you with many interesting facts about people through out history. The author repeats many of the same people as in the prior volume but with new facts. This volume like the volume one has many mistakes such using the wrong word or tense. A better job of proofreading these volumes is needed. Overall an enjoyable experience for light reading.
